Switching projector inputs By linking your visualiser to a PC or laptop you can switch projector inputs using the ‘CAM/PC’ button on the unit’s remote. This integrates seamlessly with an interactive whiteboard and only requires a second VGA lead: (you may have to clone the screen when linked to a laptop).

If your PC is connected to a splitter box, simply connect the VGA lead that comes from the wall-plate socket into the visualiser’s ‘Projector’ socket, then use another VGA lead to link the splitter box to the visualiser’s ‘Computer In’ socket. (The visualiser itself can be used as a splitter box!). The GV3100 records directly to an SD Card which can be transferred to any PC / Laptop with an SD card reader.

Loading the software ‘12V IN’ socket
The accompanying disk has essential software for enabling your computer to recognise the visualiser and capture images, both still and moving. This will be done through the USB connecting lead. The driver for your operating system must be installed before connecting the USB lead. The set-up wizard will take you through the process. VideoCap and Genee Toolbar are programs that will give you live camera windows and whiteboard tools on your desktop, allowing you to annotate over them or capture in common image and video formats that can be incorporated into different applications.
